32GB Patriot Axle USB 2.0 Flash Drive (PSF32GAUSBG) $10 after $10 Rebate + Free Shipping (expired)

Got this last time. One thing that really stood out is that it is quite slow. It's also insanely small and I find that a good thing.

It's not that bad, and even faster on USB 3.0

In for one this time around. My current one was a deal earlier this year.

I got it last time and works great. I use it for movies on my tablet.

Thx OP!! Got 1 last time around and just got another. Good deal.

I agree. I don't find them to be slow. I have a bunch of these from my local Fry's Electronics. They're good. However, they're tiny, and I easily misplace them. A great deal, if you are better than me at keeping track of tiny things.

Thanks and repped!

N for another....Thx Repped!

Darn, wish this was USB 3 No rush, waiting for bF

any cash back nowadays ?
looks like only Chase has 2% (was 5%)

For those of you who own one of these, what are the average Write/Read speeds you get? On both USB 2.0, and USB 3.0, if possible.

I have a Patriot 8GB that I got a few years ago for $7.99, and I normally get around 7MB/s-9MB/s write speed, with the average around 8.5MB/s. And the Read Speed is usually around 20MB/s-26MB/s, and averages out around 23MB/s. Those speeds are on USB 3.0.

Strangely enough, when I test it on my USB 2.0 ports, I normally get around 8MB/s-9MB/s write speed, and average around 8.9MB/s, while on read speed I get 30MB/s-35MB/s and average out around 32MB/s.

Not sure why I see better results on USB 2.0...I always figured it's that the device wasn't made compatible with USB 3.0 ports, so it kind of doesn't work well with them. My guess anyway.

But will this USB Drive see around the same results, or better?

I'm interested in buying, but not unless I will see at least around 8MB/s write, and 20MB/s read, at least.

From reading the Newegg page I do see that it says "20MB/s Read Speed", but I don't see anything about the write speed.

Just used a couple of my friends now and again, and I see a lot of them around 4MB/s write speed, which is a tad slow for my liking. These were all different brands though, none of them Patriot.

I got both the pink one and the black one~ the pink one has a decent speed and the black one is slow as heck~ it's pain in your a@@ to wait trust me~ but i guess it works if you keep dumping work files (small size files) in it along the time~
